					<description><![CDATA[I think Lowry is just washed up at this point, his numbers this season seen to clearly indicate a player in heavy decline. The Raptors also emptied their bench to get Leonard and Gasol, and now their bench has been completely trash, being outperformed even by the Philly one who has very little depth. The game was sorta close, then Leonard sits for like 3 minutes and Philly doubles their advantage.

I think if Embiid is healthy the Sixers have as good a chance as any of the other teams to win the east. Butler is really showing up for this series and Simmons has played well too. Obviously I don’t see them beating the Warriors, but the east seems completely wide open, whoever gets on a good streak will take it.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[d&#038;d referenced three big wow type of twists provided to them by grrm... one was the shireen burning... the other was hodor and one comes at the very end...  
&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.reddit.com/r/asoiaf/comments/bjm9az/the_great_war_isnt_over_spoilers_extended/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;this is where i read it... &lt;/a&gt;  

now i don&#039;t think it&#039;ll turn out 100% the way he portrays it since there&#039;s some gaps which he acknowledges but it&#039;s a solid theory which would tie up some loose ends in the story up to this point...  and a lot of the weirdness of this season...  and it does provide some satisfaction that it&#039;ll end in a not so terrible way....  

in any case... if they do fuck it up... i can at least imagine a different ending...]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&lt;blockquote&gt;Embiid is solid&lt;/blockquote&gt;

IMO, when Embiid is healthy he&#039;s an absolute terror on both sides. He can become an all time great player. But when you are always hurt, in the out of the lineup, and can&#039;t practice enough to stay fit, that&#039;s a problem.  He was clearly less than 100% against the Nets and in the first two games of this series.  This was the first game in awhile he looked like himself.  That&#039;s bad for me.  I thought he was going to struggle the entire playoffs. 

The 76ers are very good.  The addition of Butler put them over the top as far as being competitive with the best teams in the league goes.  They needed that 3rd player and got a legitimate star with experience.  

Lowery is going to have wake up out of his coma for the Raptors to win the next game unless Embiid comes up lame off this game.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[i&#039;m probably in the minority but i do love 90s style ball.... it was much more engaging and physical which wasn&#039;t exactly aesthetically pleasing most of the time but made those great moments better....  alley oop today isn&#039;t all that special....   

i share a lot of the GoT sentiments as most on here.... but if you look at any tv show it&#039;s very hard to get consistently get good writing and acting through even half the seasons that they&#039;ve gone through... the only one that i&#039;ve watched that&#039;s managed to thread the needle through as many story lines and characters was The Wire... so i do cut them some slack but at the same time they have do have a responsibility to land this plane...  

there&#039;s a popular theory that&#039;s circulating about a really big twist left.... i don&#039;t think it&#039;s quite what ntilikilla is capturing but it involves one of those characters.... if that theory is true i think that should wrap up the stories fairly well but we&#039;ll see...]]></description>
